WSUS Deployment

Microsoft Window Server Update Services (WSUS) enables information technology users to deploy the latest Microsoft product updates to Microsoft Windows Server 2000, 2003 & 2008 and Windows XP/Vista operating systems. By using WSUS, you can fully manage the distribution of updates that are released through Microsoft Update to computers in their network.

Windows Server Update Services is a patch and update component of Windows Server and offers an effective and quick way to help keep systems up to date. Windows Server Update Services provides a management infrastructure consisting of:

Microsoft Update: The Microsoft Web site that Windows Server Update Services components connect to for updates to Microsoft products.

Windows Server Update Services server: The server component that is installed on a computer running a Windows 2000/2003/2008 Server operating system inside the corporate firewall. Windows Server Update Services server provides the features that administrators need to manage and distribute updates through a Web-based tool, which can be accessed from Internet Explorer on any Windows computer in the corporate network. In addition, a Windows Server Update Services server can be the update source for other Windows Server Update Services servers.
